We have great news, friend:

A client from our Zelaya case, Catarino Zapote Hernández, was able to return to
his home and family in the United States as a result of our legal victory. His
story and the community’s heroic fight for justice are featured in a powerful
segment on Univision’s season premiere of "Aquí y Ahora" that aired on Sunday. Watch the video of his return here >>>

[[link removed]]Catarino is one of the approximately 100 workers who was illegally targeted and
detained following a brutal raid at a meat processing plant in eastern Tennessee
in 2018. He had to leave the United States as a result of the raid and spent
three years away from his home — but several weeks ago, he was able to return to
his family and community as part of the settlement agreement that we fought for
in our case.

"It feels like justice for something that was an injustice for many people. More
than anything, it feels like justice won." — Catarino Zapote Hernández

Our collective efforts — from our courageous plaintiffs to our co-counsel, to
community advocates and supporters like you, friend —
made this possible. While we cannot heal the wounds caused by the violent 2018 raid, moments like
Catarino’s return home are a reminder of what we can achieve when we come
together in the name of justice.

As we forge ahead to the next fight, we are carrying the words of Catarino with
us: “Don’t give up and keep fighting.”

In solidarity,

Kica Matos
President
National Immigration Law Center
